Port Forwarding

Forward ports directly from the Thunder Compute sidebar in VS Code. Your service gets a public HTTPS URL with automatic DDoS protection.

​
Forward a Port

  1. In the Thunder Compute sidebar, find your running instance
  2. Right-click the instance and select Forward Port
  3. Enter the port number(s) to forward
Your service becomes available at: 
https://<instance-uuid>-<port>.thundercompute.net

​
Manage Forwarded Ports

Forwarded ports appear as child items under your instance in the sidebar. For each port you can:
  • Open in Browser - click the globe icon next to the port
  • Copy URL - click the copy icon to copy the public HTTPS URL
  • Remove - click the trash icon to stop forwarding

​
Limitations

  • Port 22 is reserved for SSH and cannot be forwarded
  • Valid port range: 1-65535
  • HTTP only: Your service must speak HTTP or gRPC. Other protocols like raw TCP or UDP are not currently supported.
For CLI-based port forwarding, see the CLI guide.
